Abstract
An optical notch filter having a suspension of small
absorbing particles which checks a narrow band of frequencies.
The small absorbent particles are suspended
as a colloidal system which can have either a solid,
liquid or gas as host material. The absorbing particles
can be incorporated in a solid matrix as a transmission
filter or used on the surface of a mirror as a reflection
filter. The filter can be tuned by an externally applied
electric field or by applying hydrostatic pressure.
